Okay, so I need to begin with saying that yes,
sometimes my bag can be a bit of a mess as it can sometimes contain old car
park tickets or empty chewing gum wrappers, but let’s move on from
that... As actually when it comes to my handbag I'm pretty well organised
most of the time! Every morning I give it a quick tidy and make sure that I’ve
got what I need and no more.
FYI of course I carry my keys and phone, but no one is interested in that.
Purse
My beloved Vivienne Westwood. I was brought this for my birthday a couple of
years back from my boyfriend. Yes, it is big but I love fitting everything in
it including cards, receipts and photos etc. I adore the tartan, it's just
beautiful.
iPod
Yes, I am aware that we are in an era of streaming but I'm a bit old school and
still love my iPod. I love buying CD's and physically being able to see the
money I've spent, not to mention I love artwork so I would always choose buying
CD's and then synching it to my iPod over streaming any day.
Headphones
So when it came to buying a pair of headphones I simply googled "best
headphones under £50". The result: well many websites claimed the AKG K451
are the best, and they were not wrong. Great quality of sound, they have a
unique twist and fold design making them compact and easy to carry/store and
they effectively cancel out background noise. Wherever my iPod goes, they go!
Concealer
I always carry concealer. My tried and tested favourite is MAC Studio
Finish SPF concealer. It leaves a great finish, but the best thing about this
concealer is that it is tiny so it can fit in any bag!
Hand Cream
I'm obsessed with having clean hands. You will
forever see me washing my hands constantly and I always moisturise straight
after. My favourite hand cream to use is by L'Occitane en Provence. Just one
small amount leaves your hands so soft and they have the most amazing scents,
this one in particular is Jasmin Passion.
Lip Balm
I know this is controversial but I'm not a massive fan of Vaseline. Oooh I said
it! Instead my go to lip balm is Nivea Lip Care Essential. It feels lush and
you don't have to use your fingers unlike Vaseline.
Sunglasses
... Because you never know when you might need them in England! I tend to buy
mine from Dorothy Perkins as they're cheap, long lasting and do the job
perfectly fine!
